Features
Flexible motor control with integrated control functions
(instead of extensive hardware interlocks):
SIMOCODE pro has many pre-defined, integrated motor control functions, including all
necessary connections and interlocks:
● Overload relay
● Direct starter (direct-on-line starter)
● Reversing starter
● Star-delta starter, also with direction reversal
● Two speeds, motors with separate windings (pole-changing starter), also with direction of
rotation reversal
● Two speeds, motors with separate Dahlander windings, also with direction of rotation
reversal
● Positioner control
● Solenoid valve control
● Actuation of a circuit breaker
● Soft starter control, possibly combined with reversing starter
These control functions are pre-defined in SIMOCODE pro and can be assigned freely to
device inputs and outputs.
These pre-defined control functions can also be adjusted flexibly to meet customer
requirements of the motor feeder, without requiring additional auxiliary relays in the control
circuit. This is achieved by means of freely parameterizable logic modules (truth tables,
counters, timers, pulse width modulators, etc.) and standard functions (power failure
monitoring, emergency start, external fault monitoring, etc.).
Detailed operating, service and diagnostics data:
SIMOCODE pro provides a range of operating, service and diagnostics data and helps to
detect impending faults in good time and stop these occurring with preventative measures. If
a fault occurs, it can be diagnosed, traced and resolved within a short period of time. Plant
downtime is thus reduced to a minimum or does not occur at all. See Chapter Overview of
functions (Page 47).
Communication:
The SIMOCODE pro basic units have integrated communication bus interfaces and are thus
able to replaces all individual wiring and distribution boxes normally required to exchange
data with a higher-level automation system with a single bus cable.
